Roedolf & Liezel: Nooitgedacht

Starting off a blog post is always the most difficult because I always want to start off saying how beautiful the bride looked, how awesome the groom was, waxing lyrically about the venue… and then have to stop myself and take a step back, think a little bit more about the couple themselves and and find the exact words to describe everything I took in through my eyes.

This time however.. I can honestly say that Roedolf and Liezel, your blog entry can only be started off by saying.. more visually stimulating than I could even hope for, Liezel, your style is classic, and you radiated sheer elegance.  Roedolf, I dont favour light suits as a rule BUT your ensemble have converted me to definitely favour light suits.  The flowers.. oh my word, the florist needs to get a blog entry on her own.  The arrangement and combination of flowers are styles I have noticed in overseas weddings and was over the moon when I laid my greedy little eyes on these masterpieces.

Roedolf and Liezel will be moving to America shortly and I wish you guys the best of luck with this new exciting chapter in your lives.  Liezel spent many years with her parents in America and will be moving back to old family and friends from many years ago – which Im sure will really feel like moving home. 

Without a hitch, without any tension, without a hint of pressure and trouble – I had the awesome, and you have no idea really how awesome… experience of working with the two of you, your families and Nooitgedacht – it is with really fond memories that I want to show you exactly how beautiful you look together.  How beautiful your love is. 

Thanks to my assistant and second shooter, Michelle.  And thanks to Liezel’s brother who showed me that I can actually still langarm – even after 10 years! 

Love love love the light, with Roedolf’s attire and colouring – it all worked so well together

I am in love with this shot, and its the kind of love that I assume some people wont “get” why I enjoy it so much.. but I love it THAT MUCH.  I literally feel giddy looking at it. 

One of my favourites of the day

This makes me happy… Liezel’s parents hugging in the background

The very dapper groom

Love these shots Michelle got of Liezel and her dad, entering the church – Dad whispering some words of wisdom or encouragement to his little girl

 

We started off the formal shoot with some gangster style

Which promptly became something to make fun of

And then turned to beauty and laughter

 

I heart about this move before I saw it.. Im impressed Roedolf, very

 

And I did like the hat… I did :)

 

 

 

 

And we caught the train – 1 minute earlier i was standing on those rails!
